Donald Trump Strikes Back (He's making the right enemies, just like Sarah)
The New York Times ^ | April 8, 2011 | Gail Collins

Posted on 04/08/2011 10:34:26 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Donald Trump has written a letter complaining about me.

“Her storytelling ability and word usage (coming from me, who has written many bestsellers), is not at a very high level,” he penned.

Although Trump and I have had our differences in the past, I never felt it was personal. In fact, until now, I have refrained from noting that I once got an aggrieved message from him in which he misspelled the word “too.”

But about the letter. Mainly, it’s a list of alleged evidence that Barack Obama was not born in the United States. Trump has made this the centerpiece of his faux presidential campaign, falling further and further into the land of the lunatic fringe. I find this a disturbing spectacle — a little like seeing a guy you know from the neighborhood suddenly turn up in the middle of Times Square with his face painted blue and yelling about space aliens.

“Bill Ayers wrote ‘Dreams From My Father,’ I have no doubt about it,” Trump told Joe Scarborough, who reported on Politico.com.

Ayers is the former ’60s radical who became a huge Republican talking point in 2008 because he had once given a house party for Obama when he was running for state senate. It’s a pretty big jump from coffee and cookies to writing an entire book, but I guess that’s what neighbors are for....

Correct.

UNLESS it is managed right.

The “independents” or Cowardly Immoral Idiots* as I like to call them.... would do just as you say.... unless.

Unless the stage is set as I describe. If the press and media make him Osama out to be a sacrificing hero of the People who gave up everything he was trying to do for us.... over a technicality (that wasn’t his fault, he didn’t know, he was only an orphan)... but those MEAN ASS REPUBLICANS wouldn’t leave him alone. No. No. Couldn’t just let a black man be president. They had to hound him.

They’ll enshrine him for his “sacrifice” - 24 x 7 news coverage. Movies. Talk of Mount Rushmore.

Just wait. It’s the only move they have. Play on the heartstrings of the Idiots in the middle.

* they can’t TAKE a position because of FEAR of being wrong, or STUPIDITY about the ISSUES, or because they lack CONVICTION of a moral center.

A lot of us around here originally figured the plan was always to let the revolutionary Obama do the heavy socialist lifting, then get a real socialist thinker in there like Hillary, who is a lot smarter than Obama, to solidify the processes that would turn us into Sweden.

They would make it look like St. Obama had been driven out by bad racists, and Mother Hillary would simply have to swoop in to save everyone from the Klu Klux Klan (Republicans).

Exactly.

Here’s the dirty secret - I will spell it all out.

DNC types know Obama cannot win. So someone has to destroy him. But it cannot be the RIGHT, because they’d get credit for being correct. It has to be done by someone like Hillary - but not look like it came from her. And she’s the only player on their side with ANY Stature left. (Gore? Dean? Kerry?) And they need to BLAME the right, to play pity on the idiots in the middle and secure their base from demoralization.

Meanwhile over in the pigcrap pit called the RNC.... they also have a problem. A female problem of a different nature.

The fix will be - RNC shanks Palin, in exchange for removing Obama and replacing him with a contest of Hillary versus Anyone But Palin (or Bachmann or Tea Party).

It’s coming.

Third party and the streets are the only answer and our last stand.

Its a shame people don't know grammer, spelling and even simple sintax. Our schools should of done better. But whose to say our system needs fixed?

I hope your own misspellings were intentional ...???

*******

Of course his mispellings were intenional.

But what do I now (know?)? I barely graduated from Columbia in New York with a degree in political science in the 1980s. I think that the professors felt sorry for me, so they gave me passing grades just so they could get rid of me at Columbia.

I think it was 1981. I had transferred to Columbia from Occidental in California.

I love Trump but not for the usual reason that I want him to win (although I wouldn’t mind). The GOP needs straw men and women to drive the issues so that the winner can be seen as moderate to the voters. I always thought that the Clinton genius was Carville and company doing all the dirty work so Clinton can stay clean.

A Stalking Horse candidate is a good thing and if he manages to actually pull it off he deserves my vote.

Yeah, but at this pace he won’t be able to find any “celebrities “ to appear on the next Celebrity Apprentice. :)

“I figure the liberals are going to start a drumbeat that Trump is too “angry” and doesn’t have the temperament to be president. That seems to be the angle they use on any Republican candidate that doesn’t approach them meekly, hat-in-hand acting as if they need the liberal medias acceptance and approval to run for president as a Republican”.
**********

And the liberals will be on the wrong side of things as usual. Damn right we’re ANGRY! We have a RIGHT to be ANGRY after what the liberals have done to our country! The “angry” thing is just what we need, not the polite “go along to get along” types like Mittens and the Huckster.

That's The Donald talking, not Gail whatever her name is. Gail was quoting from The Donald's critical letter.

Before quoting it as “objective”, Collins should follow the Factcheck.org trial, the Annenberg funded operation. Ayers and Obama both served on the board of Annenberg.

Pretty clever for them to get ahead of all of this, set up “Factcheck.org” as some pristine de facto truth and attempt to sandbag any and all real threats to Obama.They knew he was a miserable can of worms going in, they needed a deflection strategy.

And Lord knows the lib stooges in the media have quoted “Factcheck.org” as the highest standard in insisting the COLB is perfect in every way, even though there is huge evidence indicating it is a fraudulent photoshop creation generated in 2007.

Trump really should apprise himself of Ron Polarik’s amazing analysis that decontructs and exposes it in micro detail.

Here you go, Mr Trump:

As proponent of the King James bible which was crafted when spelling was still phonetic and Shakespeare signed his name three different ways all I can say is ‘who cares?’ about spelling.

Boortz is very nasty to pro-lifers, too.

He is an angry old man of limited intellect and lacks the ability of critical thinking.

I am so happy 0bama’s lackeys at factcheck.org validated 0bama’s piece of green paper.
Now, if only 0bama would follow Ike’s lead and file his Birth Certificate and other relevant documents at a bunch of County Clerk office’s, all of this nonsense would go away
